Chapter 333: Chapter 333 Tactics

After the brief and pleasant lunch time passed.

Ryun Uchiha bid farewell to Danzo and headed towards the classroom. The students of Class S were currently eating, playing, and joking with each other, no different from other classes.

Ryun stood outside the door, the corners of his mouth upturned, his thoughts seemingly returning to his own class attendance days.

He was just like these children, happy and carefree. However, he had not come here just to listen and then leave. He pushed the door open, and obviously, the classroom quieted down.

Everyone looked towards the door, sitting properly and orderly, looking straight ahead, posing as good students.

Ryun did not expose them. After scanning the room once, he spoke. "Everyone, go downstairs. Prepare for combat practice."

The group let out a chorus of groans. They glanced at the time; there was still half an hour until class started. But, the teacher had spoken, who among them dared not listen?

So, the six quickly got up and headed downstairs. This time, Ryun took them to the Forest of Death.

After bringing them to the predetermined location, Ryun spoke with a smile. "Everyone, the use of offensive ninjutsu is prohibited. It is every man for himself. Wooden kunai and shuriken are prepared for you."

"Furthermore, the use of the Kekkei Genkai Sharingan and Byakugan is not allowed. Rely entirely on your instincts to fight. Weapons will now be distributed."

After speaking, Ryun took out six scrolls. They all contained the same things: thirty shuriken, two kunai, five ropes, and two military ration pills.

"Time limit: twelve hours. The final winner will be taught an A-rank ninjutsu suitable for them." Ryun said lightly with a smile.

"Fighting is prohibited for the first thirty minutes. Thirty minutes later, when you see a fireball in the sky, begin the battle." After saying this, Ryun first demonstrated his Great Fireball Technique.

Instantly, a giant fireball shot into the sky, covering half of the forest.

Everyone’s expressions changed. They knew their teacher was very powerful, but only now was this power visualized.

A C-rank ninjutsu, the Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique, was actually used by him to achieve the effect of an S-rank ninjutsu.

After finishing the demonstration, Ryun was not red in the face nor short of breath. The corners of his mouth turned up as he looked at the six. "I declare, begin now!"

Everyone snapped back to reality, glanced at each other, and quickly moved into action. Although Ryun said offensive ninjutsu were prohibited, he did not say the use of chakra was forbidden.

Minato was the first to act. Chakra covered his legs, and in a flash, he disappeared. Seeing that Ryun had no dissatisfaction with this, but instead looked appreciative, everyone else followed suit.

Watching all six disappear, Ryun smiled, then glanced at the time on his phone. He found a large tree, jumped onto it, and leaned against a branch to sleep.

Of course, he had set an alarm.

After thirty minutes passed, the alarm sounded. Ryun’s closed eyes opened. He turned off the alarm, then jumped into the air, clapping his hands together. "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

The giant fireball covered the entire map, sending the signal for the battle to begin.

The six all perked up, scanning their surroundings, observing for any signs of movement.

Ryun withdrew the fireball and activated his Soul Perception Technique. The entire forest transformed into a three-dimensional image, imprinted in his mind, and the positions of the six were marked with red dots.

As a teacher, he certainly couldn’t just let these students fight on their own. That would be too irresponsible!

For a while, no one made a move. The first rule of the shinobi code is to endure loneliness, waiting for the best moment to strike, and not to act rashly.

Ryun observed the six, unable to help but nod in approval. Just then, Minato moved. Ryun couldn’t help but frown.

From his understanding of Minato, he was the most mature and steady among these students. How could he be the first to make a move?

However, the next moment, he smiled. He saw Namikaze Minato use the Shadow Clone Technique, one of the Three Basic Jutsu, ordering the shadow clone to go down and swagger through the forest, attracting everyone’s attention.

"Not bad, has my style! Hmm? What is he... I see! Chopping wood! Making a fire!! He’s trying to attract everyone over!" Ryun’s mouth twitched.

First, the sound of chopping wood attracted two people: one was Sarutobi Shinnosuke, the other was Hyūga Hiashi.

The two advanced slowly, seeing Minato’s actions from two different angles, and couldn’t help but twitch their mouths. Seriously, bro, what are you doing!

If you want to fight, just say so, it’s not like we won’t fight you. Aren’t you ashamed, chopping wood like this?

Minato’s shadow clone’s ears twitched, clearly hearing the nearby rustling, but it pretended nothing had happened and continued chopping wood.

Hiashi and Shinnosuke were also reluctant to act rashly. They were not only watching Minato’s shadow clone but also keeping an eye on their backs, afraid someone might come and ambush them.

Meanwhile, Minato’s main body was standing on a tree not far away, having locked onto the figures of Hiashi and Shinnosuke.

He narrowed his eyes. Not enough! So, the shadow clone began splitting the wood into firewood, clearing the grass around the firewood to prevent the fire from getting out of control later when lit.

After doing all this, Minato’s shadow clone was panting, exhausted. He used wood, rope, and a stick to make a simple fire-starting tool for friction fire.

In just a moment, flames ignited, burning the firewood. The firewood crackled, making Shinnosuke and Hiashi’s hearts itch.

Then, black thick smoke rose. Uchiha Fugaku, Yamanaka Inoichi, and Akimichi Chōza simultaneously looked towards the black smoke, their expressions shifting!

Is this... someone fighting?

They all moved, rushing towards the direction where the smoke was rising. Shinnosuke and Hiashi felt something was wrong. They just wanted to leave, but then the two sides started fighting!

Yamanaka Inoichi and Akimichi Chōza versus Sarutobi Shinnosuke.

Uchiha Fugaku versus Hyūga Hiashi.

Meanwhile, Minato by the fire was safe and sound, sitting there resting, looking towards the direction where Hiashi and Fugaku were fighting.

His main body was watching the direction of Shinnosuke and the others. Now, this was getting interesting!

Good, good, good. Everyone wanted to make a move to eliminate Minato first. But now, it turned into their own internal fights, consuming a lot of stamina. Minato, who had consumed a lot of stamina, was instead left alone by them.

Ryun couldn’t help but be stunned. Finally, an idea flashed in his mind. Tactics? This was Minato’s tactic of showing weakness to lure the enemy out.

They didn’t know it was Minato’s shadow clone. Therefore, when they saw the shadow clone had used up more than half its stamina, they downgraded Minato’s threat level to the minimum.

Those who arrived first would be discovered by those who came later, leading to battles breaking out!

Good seedling, truly a good seedling! Ryun looked at Minato, a smile appearing in his eyes.
